Journalism students attend event at Comerica Park

Students from all over Metro Detroit participated in Journalism Day at Comerica Park on April 27. Journalism Day was part of the ballpark's "Class Outside" series.

Selected journalism students from different programs were given the opportunity to sit in on a couple lectures at Comerica Park before a Tigers game.

The speakers specialized in sports communication and sports journalism. One speaker told his story in the business and how to interview players. He even gave time for a Twitter Q’s & A session where students as middle school and high school students asked some intriguing questions.

When the rain started we were given our free time where we ate at Buffalo Wild Wings and waited out the rain.

When it stopped raining the students rolled in the park just in time for the first pitch.

“Everything went so great and was well organized, they even showed us hilarious videos,” said Karmen Hardaway.

It turned into a beautiful day, even though the Tigers lost, but it was still a good game.
